Picture Story Books

"Scary Bird" by Michel Streich

A funny story about being new to a group. Bright quirky pictures show how important it is to value creatures who are different. 

"My Mum has X-ray Vision" by Angela McAllister and Alex T. Smith

Junior classes have been laughing along to this story about two kids who wonder why their mums can tell what they are doing without being in the same room. How do mums know when you do something wrong behind their backs? Very cute illustrations and diagrams of “Supermum” and her special powers are included.

Junior Levels

"Heroes of Footy"  by Kevin Sheedy

A new book of stories about men and women who have made their careers in football. Easy reading and bright colourful pictures make it the perfect book to browse through. Part of a large series of inspiring books about outstanding people.

The "Wolf Girl" series by Anh Do

This is an intriguing, fast paced series and while the language and writing style make it an easy read, it’s thought provoking. It will immediately appeal to 10+ readers that are interested in adventure and exploring what people can achieve in extreme situations.

We have the first four books in the Library now.

Secondary Reading

" We are Wolves" by Katrina Nannestad

'All the appeal, adventure and terror of classic war novels like Once and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, but with its own unique voice, humour and heart. We Are Wolves is a book for children and their adults to curl up and read together, and I feel as though it will be read and loved for many years to come.'  Tristan Bancks bestselling author of Detention.
